Glove structure

ABSTRACT

A glove structure. The structure includes a rubber pad fixed on extremities of the fingers of any conventional soft glove. The pad can turn a glove with separated fingers into a webbed glove. Apart from being very handy when carrying things or as a swimming-aid among other functions, the glove structure is particularly useful to prevent a scuba diver from injury when his fingers scrape against corals.

BACKGROUNG OF THE INVENTION

a) Field of the Invention

The invention herein relates to a glove structure, more specifically toa soft glove wherein the fingers' front part is equipped with a rubberpad, thereby providing a webbed hand, which will be of help whileswimming. Moreover, this improved glove, aside from being very handywhen carrying things, is even more useful while swimming, preventing anyfinger-scraping and other functions.

b) Description of the Prior Art

On one hand, because most conventional soft gloves, such as surgicalgloves, have several advantages such as convenience for handling ordisposability, they are much appreciated by users. From the fact thatconventional soft gloves are only worn on the palm of the hand, thenthey only have specific applications, surgery for instance, and are ofno help for a swimmer.

On the other hand, gloves specifically dedicated to diving or scubadiving, are made of very thick material in order to prevent injuriesfrom elements such as corals. Not only are they very expensive but suchgloves can't be used for any other purpose too.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The primary objective of the invention herein is to provide a soft glovewhereof the fingers' front part is equipped with a rubber pad, therebyturning the glove into a webbed hand, very similar to duck feet, glidingeasily underwater, thereby providing great help to swimmers. Apart frombeing very handy for carrying things as well as being able to increaseswimming speed, the invention herein can also be very useful forteaching swimming.

Another objective of the invention herein lies in the attached rubberpad and apply to scuba divers: apart from preventing the divers to grazetheir fingers against corals, the afore-mentioned pad can also protectthe soft glove therein from tearing.

To enable a further understanding of the said objectives and thetechnological methods of the invention herein, the brief description ofthe drawings below is followed by the detailed description of thepreferred embodiments.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 1 is a plan view of the invention herein.

FIG. 2 is an exploded drawing of the invention herein.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the invention herein mainly consists ofa rubber pad 2 adhering to extremity of fingers of a soft glove 1,whereby the glove 1 with separated fingers is turned into a webbed hand3, similar to a duck foot, making it very easy for the swimmer to glidein the water. Thus, not only does the invention herein increase thespeed while swimming, but it prevents injuries against corals too whenit is used by a scuba diver or a diver. Moreover, the glove therein isalso protected from scratches against corals.

In conclusion, the invention herein makes it easy to carry things andcan be used by both children and adults. On top of that, it can help aswimmer increase its speed and provide a (scuba) diver with a handyprotective glove.

It is of course to be understood that the embodiments described hereinare merely illustrative of the principles of the invention and that awide variety of modifications thereto may be effected by persons skilledin the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the inventionas set forth in the following claims.

1. A glove structure comprising: a rubber pad adhering to extremity ofsoft glovefingers; thereby turning the glove with separated fingers intoa webbed hand, providing auxiliary function for swimming purpose.
